AID Seminar in school in rural area
We just held our first AID seminar for 700 children ages 7 to 14 in a rural school in Mobewi. At first, we had planned to aim at teenagers, but the school principal urged us to start with a younger age group, as she said these children were already affected and needed to be made aware of the dangers they were facing and taught how to make knowledgeable decisions.
We used the "Focus on the Family" program and adapted it for that age group, using interactive activities that caught the kids attention and participation.
All of the children also prayed with us to receive the One Who can truly help them to live in a godly way and stay free of AIDS, Jesus.
We are planning to hold such seminars on a monthly basis, and will reach teenagers next time.
